VeganChallenge case study

UX-improvements for one of the projects of the Dutch Vegan Society (NVV) - the VeganChallenge. This project is my Bachelor thesis and part of my volunteering job at the NVV.

HAN Minor Abroad

HAN Bureau Internationalisering / International office

By doing research on the user experience on the current Minor Abroad search engine, I figured it could use some major improvements. In this case I tackled some of the issues students face on their search for a minor abroad and designed a more pleasurable user experience.

De Zintuigen wand (Wall of Senses)

Lectoraat Architecture in Health

A physical wall designed to promote healthy eating among elderly people in nursing homes by stimulating the senses. Second picture shows some concept art I did. Winner of the Revolutionary Research award at ICA Presents on January 24, 2019.

KLM

Content strategy for a new campaign (physical and social media) for KLM's iFly-magazine. For the course Online TouchPoint Management at the Media Design E-business semester at the HAN.

During the Service Design course, we reviewed Miss Etam's current service design and a vision of how this brand could engage its target audience better through a better mobile app geared towards a senior audience.

Google Analytics study - HAN Oral Health Care webpage

Hogeschool van Arnhem en Nijmegen

A study on how to improve HAN's oral heath care course overview, based on selected KPI's, to gain more customer engagement and leads from the target audience. This course was meant to be an introduction to Google Anaytics.

OV-Journey

iXperium Arnhem

A concept for mobile game targeted at children with special needs to help them independently travel by public transport. The general idea is the trip from point A to B being the game itself with a focus on NFC-feature on Android-phones.

An immersive, futuristic experience in the HAN, meant to engage visitors with many of the technological advancements of Experience Design. The experience features a fictional AI we named IRIS (ICA Rating Individuals System).

A multidisciplinary assignment with me and my classmate as UX-designers and two IT-graduates.

Ellis' Quest

Sensire

A mobile game inspired by the Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy method (REBT for short, RET in Dutch), created and developed by American psychotherapist Albert Ellis (hence the title). Our target demographic are children aged 11-16 in need of REBT.

Bella Donna homepage revamp

A case for a new lay-out for vintage store Bella Donna in Arnhem. I went from reserach to a concept to a design in HTML/CSS5.

Immersive Space

This interactive short story is made in Adobe Animate CC using a bit of ActionScript (outdated, I know!). The objective is to create a space as immersive as possible. It was still very intense, especially since I had to complete this assignment on my own.

Magazine

My first project at the HAN, a magazine about myself, as well as some small assignments from school.
